lyrics
Arbeit macht frei
He spoke in Esperanto, howling whispers from the mezzanine
Some people, couldn’t understand him, others condemned his language obscene
He’s weary from his travels, been wondering day and night
A fantasy unraveled, our boy is running out of fight
His tower of Babel, brought about the occupiers vitriol
Cause you know, staircases for the masses, coalesce in the loss of control
He’s weary from his travels, been wondering day and night
A fantasy unraveled, our boy is running out of fight
Bridge
He wouldn’t run away, he spoke it to their face, His tower crumbling around him
his premonition surrounds him, and now they’ve gagged him and bound him
The dead don’t get a say, and martyrs fade away, the tyrants mar the remembrance
They tried to force him to penance, their native tongue spoke his last sentence
The train car was crowded, he still preferred it to it’s final port of call
And his carriage, it was standing room only, his last stand bought the ticket to his fall
